Hello again! Sara has 2 more blog posts up at the JC site. The first one (week 36) shows a 3 day plan of what she eats for ‘maintenance’, and the second shares the likeness between food and sex. Not really, but it piqued your interest, didn’t it?

Week 36:

DAY 1:
Breakfast
Organic Steel Cut oats about 1/2 – 3/4 cup with about 1/2 cup almond milk and a half a banana and 1/2 cup blueberries

Snack
Low fat Vanilla yogurt

Lunch
Tortilla with 1/4 cup low fat shredded cheese and spinach, grilled up with Pam – like a quesadilla
LARGE green salad with miso dressing (1 Tbsp)

Snack
Apple and 12 almonds

Dinner
Jenny’s Cuisine Spaghetti and Meatballs with my special “all veggies” sauce on top
I large sliced tomato, a sliced peach fresh basil and 1-ounce mozzarella cheese with balsamic vinegar

Dessert
Jenny’s Cheesecake

I would never eat that sort of food in a day. Probably costs too much and would never fill me up. Haha. But then again, it’s really healthy, so I guess there’s a trade-off.

Week 37:

This is a huge positive with losing weight. But there’s another everyday activity that changes when you lose weight (and want to keep it off) and no one ever talks about it. So I’m here to share all the dirt on …are you ready?

Click here for Week 36, and here to read Week 37.

A brief bit of site news, sorta. I have a TON of pics from recent things that Sara has been at, so I’ll be getting them up. Probably after albor Day weekend here, as I’m going to be away until afterward. Also, I need to get the twitpics caught up too. All in good time, I’m sure.

Here’s a new E Online video regarding Sara being finished with the weight loss portion of her diet. No time to find the original site, but enjoy!:

Hey everyone! It’s been a few days and I missed a few things and found a few others! We’ll start this post with some JC news. Sara has 2 blogs up that I hadn’t posted about. Week 34 and week 35. Here’s a snippet from each, and links will follow:

Week 34:

Ok, it finally happened …I finally feel “at goal.” Yes, I realize this comes a month into maintenance, which, yes, is a month after I reached my goal of losing 50 pounds*, but what can I say – it took a while to set in, I guess.

Week 35:

The lesson: don’t believe everything you read because that weight is false. I NEVER give out my weight because I know that every body is different and the last thing I want is for people to obsess about hitting a certain number on a scale based on what I have done. Here are the facts that I’ve given out: I am 5′8″ and when I started I was a tight 14 and now I am a comfortable 6.

You can read the week 34 blog here, and the week 35 one here.

Ive also found a clip of Sara on the celebrity news/gossip show TMZ. Here’s video of the section she’s in:

“Are you saying advertising… is misleading?” I love that. Haha.

And finally for this post there are some new pictures out from the Angel Awards. You can find the new pics in Gallery 02. Here’s my favorite of the new pics (the exposure seems to be lower so the colors aren’t as washed out):

And there’s yet another post up at the Jenny Craig site. That’s a LOT of Sara Rue weight loss items in the past few days. I need to find something to put up and break the trend. Maybe a new clip from one of the various dvds I have laying about? We’ll see. Anyway, here’s a bit from the latest jlog:

I just got back from an AMAZING few days in San Diego for Jenny Craig’s annual conference. It was AMAZING for a lot of reasons. First, I got to get dressed up in my new suit – which I bought in my new size – which is always super fun. Second, I had the opportunity to moderate a panel of other incredible Jenny Craig success stories to an audience of Jenny Craig employees …the people who do all the work right along side us every week, behind the scenes. Our very own unsung weight loss heroes…

Ummm… Yeah. Nothing really to say to this. Congratulations to Sara on losing so much weight.

Also, congratulations to my wife for losing 30 pounds since she’s started dieting and exercising, and to my friend who (if I recall correctly) has lost 90 pounds since he started.

I’d lose weight too, but I like eating far too much. Hah!

Oh yeah! I almost forgot. Click here to read Sara’s full post.

Wow. Lots to post here today… Ready? Here we go.

We start off with a new blog post. After weeks 30 and 31 having been missing from the JC site for a few days, they’re back along with week 32. Here’s a quick bit of the post:

What I’m saying is…seven months – or however long it takes you to get to your goal – is going to click away anyway, my lovelies, so you might as well use each day to your advantage, right? That’s my ‘second-week-on-maintenance’ bit of wisdom for you (that I stole from Abraham Lincoln.) Accept that time can click by IN YOUR FAVOR when you put your mind to it.

A nice bit of upliftiness for you. But, doesn’t time tick rather than click? I guess it can do whatever you want it to. It’s our concept, so it’ll make whatever noise we say it does, right? Haha. Onward!

There’s a new commercial at the JC site as well. Here it is in case it’s not working for you at the JC site (also in case you’re here late and it’s changed to a newer commercial):

Less of a ‘listen to how we write bad jokes to keep you interested in us’ and more of a ‘look what I did’. At least, that’s how I see it. Onward!

In addition to the new blog and commercial, there was a new video log thrown up on the site as well. As with the commercial, I’m hosting it here in case for some reason it’s not viewable on the JC site:

I haven’t had a chance to watch the entire thing, but I’m sure it’s a lot of Sara telling us how happy she is that she reached her goal, and you can do it too and she’s proof of it. Generally what all of the vlogs are… Onward!

And, finally (!) we have a video from the super recent people.com article regarding Sara and her 50 pound goal being reached. The article is here and the video is at the bottom. Here’s the vid, as usual, for your enjoyment:

There’s another post over at the JC site. Sara is done with the weight loss part of her journey and now has to concentrate on keeping it off. Here’s a clipping:

That night, we had reservations at a super fancy French restaurant, known internationally for their amazingly rich food. Um, why did we decide to go there? Because we thought it would be “special” – and that’s what you’re supposed to do for an anniversary, right? Except that we didn’t need a highly caloric cream sauce and a super stuffy atmosphere to remind of us of what we have and what we’ve worked for in our relationship. So we left and went to a more relaxed seafood restaurant and had an amazing night.

Yay for switching from super fancy place to more laid back place! I hate fancy places. But that’s just me. Hehe.

Didn’t I just post about the last… ummm… post… yesterday? I think I’m not keeping up as well as maybe I should be. But I digress…

There’s a new blog post up at the Jenny Craig site. Sara has been posting for 30 weeks now. If I recall correctly, this means that she’s been on the program for about 32 weeks now. This latest post is all about her having reached her final goal of 50 pounds and where she’s going from here. Here’s a quick clip:

So what is my plan moving forward? Well, you’re not done with me yet. I plan to be a part of the Jenny Craig family for a long time. I’ll be blogging as I move into maintenance and I still have some toning and shaping that I’d like to do… oh yeah, and there’s also that half marathon. As a result, I’ll probably continue on this whole working out kick that I’ve been on. I also need to get my butt into gear and start planning my wedding.

These posts just won’t stop coming, will they? Ha! ANyway, here’s another clip from yet another blog by Sara on the Jenny Craig site:

Part of the reason it’s going so well is that I’m feeling amazing. Now, over the past many months people have been saying to me “You must feel amazing!”… but the truth is that I often didn’t feel amazing. I definitely felt better than I had before, but I just hadn’t gotten to amazing yet. I knew that I was on the right path, but I also knew that I still had a lot of work to do.
